Before I call on the Deputy Leader to outline the Order of Business, I welcome to the Distinguished Visitors Gallery Ambassador Magdalini Nicolaou from Greece, who is with us this morning. On behalf of all of us in Seanad Éireann, I congratulate the ambassador and her people on their national day, which will take place this Saturday, 25 March. Greek Independence Day commemorates the start of the Greek revolution. We are very grateful for the ambassador's friendship and her work here in Dublin. Also this morning, we remember the people who lost their lives in the tragic train accident a number of weeks ago in the centre of the country. In my best attempt at Greek, I wish the ambassador and the Greek people Zíto i Elláda, which means long live Greece. I say to the ambassador and her community to enjoy their celebration on Saturday.
